Twenty-nine years ago to the day, 3 January 1993, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (DS9) premiered in first-run syndication with the two-hour pilot episode, "Emissary" (not to be confused with the 1989 episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, "The Emissary"). DS9 is both my favorite television show & my favorite part of Star Trek. Even more than that, DS9 is an integral part of the bond I share with my best friend.
I could wax poetic about DS9—about Sisko & Kira, Dax & Bashir, Quark & Miles Edward O'Brien—for hours, but I would simply ramble, dear readers, as I have not properly organized my thoughts. I aim to make a much bigger deal of next year, the thirtieth anniversary, should the world perdure. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine debuted the first of its one hundred seventy-six episodes twenty-nine years ago today, 3 January 1993.
Bonus! Song o' the Day: DS9
